Question
Does vaccination affect a child’s muscle tone? Regarding this issue, the child has been experiencing abnormal muscle tone for some time, and parents are hesitant about whether medication treatment should be administered, hoping to receive professional medical advice.
Answer
Vaccination does not affect muscle tone. Muscle tension may be a sign of cerebral palsy or sequelae of jaundice, and should be addressed immediately if jaundice issues are detected. Abnormal muscle tone should be diagnosed and treated as early as possible. Treatment methods mainly include massage and rehabilitation training, supplemented by swimming therapy and electrotherapy. If the brain injury is severe, acupuncture or brain-stimulating acupuncture may be considered. Daily care should involve passive massage exercises for infants, such as chest lifting, horizontal lifting, and arm exercises, as well as riding on the legs.
